Found 20 minutes to wash the car in between dropping the rear in my 49 and pulling a integra motor out of a civic hatch this weekend.









Got some new rubber dirt cheap. Not much else. Its still waiting on its donor m20 to delievered. That motor will get some work, and the top end of the eta will be up for grabs. Also looking to get around to installing some shiney new exhaust tubes.

Did you spray those lights? It's not half bad.. you didnt' over do it

Looks sexcellent. Everything about that car works so well together. First shot is awesome, is it just me or do you have something green in a brake duct though?

[EtaSport]

yes, the lights are sprayed. They were first sanded completely and had all the numbers, symbols removed (entirely smooth). Then sprayed with my own mix of paint/reducer sprayed on with my HVLP gravity feed gun. They also have about 4 coats of automotive clear. They look like glass, that rear shot makes them a little fuzzy, but the lighting sucks.

Makes me happy, and drivers can still see my lights.

The green in my brake duct is from the camera, I didnt realize the lighting situation and the sun did some funny things. Reiger lip is still together, altough ready for another bit of work. Hitting a rabbit at 35 will do that though.

I thought it was a lazer-beamer, that would have been cool. Ohwell.

Tails came out very nice. I'm going to practice on my spare cracked tail. You've inspired me :)

Yep, this car comes together as a whole so well, I love it.

Purchased a crudyey Eta to run on track when you dump the engine would be interested in parts ie exhaust and few other items.

What in particular. I should be getting a complete i system with an ansa muffler. I've got a set of headers in my trunk too. Thats what I'm waiting to install. I figure I'll have downpipes made for the i exhaust instead of the eta.

racing dynamics rear. I regret maybe a little with not getting euro bumpers, but I think the car went in a better direction with plastic. Someday I would like to have a eurofied early, but it would be like an 84-86.
